I think we agreed on the last COmanage-dev call that we needed to get our hands around the varied meanings of federated/domesticated ssh.

Two specific next steps were the following:

1. assembling a group of folks to work on it. I think volunteers/draftees were - Michael, Tom, Steven, Jim Leous, Jim Basney at a minimum. Anyone else want to volunteer? In addition, we will look for a link to the Dutch efforts.
We talked about using the alternate week slots of the COmanage time for these calls, which would make our first call Friday Sept 10th at 2 pm edt.

I'll be on the call.  It may well be we'll want to integrate what comes out of those calls in to the survey you are mentioning below, which is what I really want to work on.

2. creating a survey to use with several key VO's to help identify the issues-
       what are your current approaches, if any, and what works/doesn't
       do users show up with keys or do they need to be generated
       what applications are ssh used for?    
       on what platforms do accounts need to be provisioned
       what should happen when an account is deprovisioned
       how are permissions on the targets sent - how does the target use the info
       etc.

Possible VO's to survey
       LIGO (Scott Koranda)
       HubZero (Michael McLennan from Purdue)
       ciLogin and Teragrid
       Open Science Grid
       Planetlab
       iPlant
       OOI

Random thought here - since AMSAC has been interested in our efforts, could/should we consider them a VO to survey, or should we just present them the results and let them add on as they choose?
